Does any code really rely on the curernt behvoious of the parent pointer
There is code that uses the parent pointer - see "packet-dcerpc-{epm,epm4,nt,spoolss}.c", for example. It probably requires that the parent pointer really point to the parent node, so that it can decorate that node. 

I'd also not call the new pointer "prnt", as it's not a parent pointer.
